Etymology

[edit]

Compared to Proto-Mongolic *-ulča (cooperative suffix), *-uldu (reciprocative suffix),[1] Mongolian -лд (-ld), -лс (-ls).[2]

According to Talât Tekin, a cognate of Proto-Mongolic *-lča: Proto-Turkic *karïĺč- (to mix together), Proto-Mongolic *karilča- (to be related or connected to each other); Proto-Turkic *koĺïĺč- (to add together), Proto-Mongolic *kolilča-.[3] (See Turkish karışmak and Azerbaijani qoşmaq) But EDAL doesn't think that *karïĺč- and *qarilča- are related. It has a different etymology in the database.[4] The verb qolilča- mentioned by Tekin should be Mongolian холилдох (xolildox) (<*kolildu-) because the mentioned word is not found in Mongolic languages.

Suffix

[edit]

*-iĺč

  1. Suffix creating reciprocal forms of verbs.
    *seb- (to love) + ‎*-iĺč → ‎*sebilč- (to love each other)
